Wow....

I saw this on Keith Lango's site and it was so interesting I had to post it here. Give it a chance. It's pretty amazing.

Richard WIlliams Stuff

A fantastic documentary about Richard Williams. Too bad the quality is poor. If you don't have the time to look at the whole thing at least check out the beginning of part two where he's analyzing people's walks.







There's a lot of documentaries popping up on youtube lately about him that I haven't seen before. Do yourself a favor and do a little search for them.

It really is a shame what they did to his life long project The Thief and the Cobbler. There's a recut version floating around out there and I was fortunate to get a copy on DVD. If you can see it, do it. It's not perfect, but there is some AMAZING animation that wasn't put into the film. I really wish they'd release a director's cut of this gem.



And of course, just in time for the holidays ;)

Evolution of Video Games

A very interesting article on the evolution of video game graphic design. Yeah it's a lot of pictures, but it's still fascinating. My only gripe is that they don't show any pictures of Zork....

Oh wait.....
